At a NASCAR racetrack, the distance per lap is 2 miles. Lou Lambert drives his car at a constant rate of 160 miles per hour. Ralph Redding drives his car at a constant rate of 170 miles per hour. How long will it take before Ralph gains 2 laps in relation to Lou?

24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance per lap = 2 miles

Speed of Lou Lambert = 160 miles/hr

Speed of Ralph Redding = 170 miles/hr

Speed difference between the two = 170 - 160 = 10 miles/hr

Therefore, we can say that Ralph gains 10 miles in 60 minutes over Lou.

We have to find the time in which Ralph will gain 2 laps i.e. 2 2 = 4 miles.

Let us use unitary method to find the required time.

10 miles are gained by Ralph in 60 minutes

1 mile will be gained in

4 miles will be gained in 6 4 = 24 minutes
